Well put... Animal Farm is really about Agile.
All engineers are equal, but some are more equal than others!

No one's saying we've never had real agile.
Philosophically, agile is more like democracy/capitalism: it decentralises control to teams, where the information and expertise are. Failures in agile are things like "I didn't like using story points".
Waterfall is more like communism: it centralises control away from the people doing the work. Failures in waterfall are things like "we spent millions and got nothing out of it".
Both have manifestos.
I think there are certain systems that make sense and can be executed properly but human nature eventually mucks it up.
